indicator-weather can't add non-ascii locations

[Lennart Regebro]

If you try to add the Trosa, Södermanland, Sweden location, the final "Apply" button doesn't make anything happen.

There is a traceback on stdout:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/indicator-weather", line 1647, in on_apply
    wi.settings.save_location_details(eval(str(location_details)), str(location_code))
  File "/usr/bin/indicator-weather", line 193, in save_location_details
    "yahoo id" : location_details['yahoo id'],
KeyError: 'yahoo id'

(This is independent of using Google of Yahoo! as a data source, so I'm guessing it fails while looking is up in "our database", whatever that means.).

Some testing indicated that the problem is that the location has a non-ascii character in it. It probably fails to look it up because of using the wrong encoding or something.

Indeed, it is, as there is also a non-ascii character in the full name "Senica, Trnavský, Slovakia".
